Eleanor & Park

Eleanor and Park by Rainbow Rowell
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Move over Belle and Edward...this is what teen love should really look like. Yes, there are cliches, but what are cliches other than relateable situations? Yes, there are unanswered questions, but you don't notice until you are reflecting on it later, which you will, because this story sticks with you. Yes, there is language, but somehow it makes the love story that much more pure, set on the back of a high school bus amidst bullies who are loud and crass. All I can say is I hope all of the Eleanors out there (and what girl isn't insecure to some extent?) find a Park to love them just as they are .
